ChatGPT selected as one of the top ten figures of the year by Nature magazine#
The top ten figures of the year in 2023 have been announced by "Nature," and it is worth noting that in addition to the ten annual figures, there is also a non-human figure on the list—ChatGPT.
"Nature" magazine stated: "Although ChatGPT is not a human, it has had a profound impact on the scientific community in the past year."
"ChatGPT's goal is to have a conversation that mimics the language style of the training set, but the generative AI program it represents is changing the way scientific research is done. Therefore, this year's 'Nature' top ten figures made an exception to include this non-human entity."
Other figures on the list include Kalpana Kalahasti, deputy director of the Indian Space Research Organization's "Chandrayaan-3" project, Annie Kritcher, chief designer of the National Ignition Facility, and Ilya Sutskever, chief scientist at OpenAI and a pioneer in artificial intelligence.
This year is the first year of its actual outbreak, and it feels increasingly indispensable. Although it still seems far from general artificial intelligence, it is already the current optimal solution.

Times have changed.

Confused young people who don't want to accept their fate#

AI Summary#
This article mainly discusses the impact of the "uselessness of reading" theory and the importance of choosing a city for the development of young people. The author points out that despite the existence of the "uselessness of reading" theory, education is still an important way to create upward mobility opportunities. At the same time, choosing a big city can provide young people with more business opportunities and a thriving private economy, helping them achieve social mobility.
Excerpt#
Children of workers are not inherently stupid or lazy, but they choose the path of "inheriting their fathers' business" voluntarily.
In a highly rigid and sophisticated social system like the UK, due to the limited opportunities to integrate into the mainstream elite society, people in subordinate positions, although they see the "ladder" of upward mobility through education, choose to bypass it because they doubt its value and believe that the faint hope will encroach on their autonomy.
Sometimes we rely too much on methodology and objective conditions, and we tend to rely on the accumulation of objective conditions. However, if you take a look at the daily schedule of those top students at Renmin University High School, you will find that they not only rely on famous teachers but also invest a huge amount of time and effort in their studies. The intelligence of ordinary people is not much different; if you don't repeatedly memorize words, anyone will forget them.
As long as a person's intelligence is at a normal level, there is no need to be confined to whether they have talent in a certain field. Just as long as you practice for 10,000 hours in that field, you can become a first-class master.
